An extraordinary legal shouting match has broken out in Durham, N.C., between the countys beleaguered local district attorney and its senior Superior Court judge, who has chastised the D.A. in open court.

Court filings are typically written in dry, obtuse legal argot. But Clines filing contains unusually accusatory and vituperative language replete with fractured syntax and spelling errors. She wrote that Hudsons actions "striped away" her rights, and that credibility of the criminal justice system is a "causality" of Hudsons conduct. She described Hudsons behavior as "without responsibility or conscious."

Saying crime victims have been "emotionally and relentlessly repeatedly raped" by the judges rulings, Cline said she will attempt to have Hudson removed from overseeing criminal cases. She also wrote that she has filed a misconduct complaint against Hudson with the state commission that oversees judges.

Cline's filing, submitted late Thursday, accuses Hudson of "intentional and malicious acts with GROSS UNCONCERN for this conduct and done in BAD FAITH."

Hudson, the senior resident judge in Durham since 1995, has dismissed murder charges in two cases prosecuted by Clines office. The judge has ruled that Cline "flagrantly violated" a defendants rights in one case, in which Hudson said Cline deliberately misstated facts in court. Cline was elected district attorney in 2008, after former Dist. Atty. Mike Nifong was removed from office and disbarred for falsely accusing Duke University lacrosse players of raping a stripper. Cline was reelected last year after running unopposed.

I sat on a jury here four years ago. The Durham PD and the DA took what looked like a slam-dunk prosecution for possession of crack with intent to distribute and totally blew it. It took us less than an hour to find the defendant innocent on all charges, thanks to the DPD’s and FBI’s utter incompetence. The DPD, the DA’s office, the judges, all of them seem to be either corrupt or incompetent. But that’s to be expected in the land of one-party rule and where race trumps everything.

One of the stupidest things I ever did in the 1970s was to help a young black guy fill out an application to be a teacher in some miserable Deep South school district looking for black applicants. He got the job.

He was a very sweet person, was actually graduating from a local college...but had fifth grade writing skills at best and had probably only gotten through college by having friendly white people do his work for him.

I thought he might be good for the kids because he was a genuinely nice person. But sadly, I think that I probably just helped perpetuate black quasi-literacy, to the great detriment of people who probably would have been smart enough to actually make it on their own if they had been taught by qualified people (of any color) and held to the same standards as people of any color.

I made the mistake of moving to North Carolina. I quickly moved back to Florida, as soon as I could. I was there when the “Duke” case started. Drugged out black stripper hooked up with dirty liberal DA running for another term of office in Durham, and the entire local “government” fully expected the innocent wealthy young white men to meekly allow themselves to be railroaded by blatantly false public accusations of rape.

Nifong expected them to quietly settle out of court, after he and the stripper dragged them through public media hell for their own purposes. Surprise! The men fought back. It is very important to note that the accused were not merely adjudicated “not guilty”, they were judged to be innocent, and were cleared of all charges. They were also proclaimed by the court to be victims of serious prosecutorial abuse, committed by the DA, Nifong.

IMHO, the same insane mentality is in play against Herman Cain. He needs to fight back hard against the false political premise that unproven “accusations” equal truth,or justice.

Seriously, how do these people, and for that matter, Barack and Michelle Obama, pass the bar exam? Is there rampant cheating going on? Do they pay others to take the exam for them? Does a sympathetic political ally “fix” the results? I really cannot figure it out.

Most likely Carolina Central University, alma mater of Crystal Magnum. Central is a Black state university in Durham. Having met a number of people who graduated from there particularly the education dept I think it needs a serious revamping if not closed.

Actually, we here at FRee Republic recognized the endemic rot of the Durham “Justice System” 5 1/2 years ago - in the spring of 2006 - when the attempted lynching of Colin Finnerty, Reade Seligmann, and Dave Evans took place.

What’s amazing is that the malefactors were able to keep it so well hidden since then.

That was an astounding response by any group of people. I think the FREEPERS were the most perceptive and insightful of watchers defending the players. I sent an e-mail to their support site and informed them that I thought there was a lot of good ideas and support here. I’ve been suspicious of the system in Durham since then and it looks like not a whole lot changed. But the people get what they vote for I guess.

District Attorney Tracey Cline continued her attack on Durham’s top judge in a lengthy court filing made public Friday that accused Orlando Hudson of heading a conspiracy to discredit and punish her.

In a 285-page motion packed with passionate and personal attacks, Cline asked Hudson to remove himself from all pending criminal cases in Durham because of his rulings against Cline in several high-profile cases.

Hudson has the “reprobate mind of a monarch” who inappropriately tried “to intimidate, control and dictate the discretion of the district attorney.”
